I'm reading via my Kindle or playing online computer games on the PC mostly. I like MMORPGs and Simulations, which absorb time nicely.
I sometimes watch something streaming via the Internet from the comfy chair in front of my computer monitor. Of course, web forums keep me occupied when I have a cuppa.
My brother was even less interested in TV and didn't own one for about 25 years, only getting one when he was chairbound because of Parkinson's Disease. He could no longer write or use a keyboard, and could no longer enjoy his main interest in life, which he had a couple of doctorates in, so TV kept him entertained if not very occupied.
So, my evening power consumption for years has been the fridge, my PC, monitor and a couple of USB lights arranged over the keyboard. I think I am fairly minimalist, really.
